Note: It is very difficult to hear Mike/rhythm guitarist on this song, sometimes live he
play along with the notes that Alice sings so I assume it's the same as the recording.
By the way this song has nothing to do with Elected (from Billion Dollar Babies), it's
similar names, listen to the two, they're completely different.

You can do whatever you want with the above repeated note,
to make it more interesting, I prefer vibratos.
